For natural numbers $x$, $y$, and $z$, if $xy + yz = 19$ and $yz + xz = 51$, then the minimum possible value of $xyz$ is

While multiplying three real numbers, Ashok took one of the numbers as $73$ instead of $37$. As a result, the product went up by $720$. Then the minimum possible value of the sum of squares of the other two numbers is

Let $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{52}$ be positive integers such that $a_{1}<a_{2}<\ldots<a_{52}$. Suppose, their arithmetic mean is one less than the arithmetic mean of $a_{2}, a_{3}$, $\ldots, a_{52}$. If $a_{52}=100$, then the largest possible value of $a_{1}$ is
